Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 376: Chapter 375: Fusion Sky Devil Array_1

”Xun Wujie! These two are the absolute geniuses of the Righteous Path. Killing them is tantamount to stifling the future of the Righteous Martial World. You can’t let these two go!”

Seeing Xun Wujie had chosen to retreat, Chu Tiange’s face changed as he sternly shouted.

”Shut up, you useless thing!” Xun Wujie sneered. ”I don’t need your advice on how I do things. I kill whom I want to kill, and I spare whom I want to spare. What business is it of yours?”

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and Xun Wujie’s voice turned exceptionally icy. ”Any more nonsense, and I’ll kill you first.”

With this sentence, Chu Tiange and the others were instantly subdued, not daring to utter another word.

With that, Xun Wujie surprisingly ignored Chu Tiange and his group, leaving alone.

Quite a character, this one.

A glint flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes; he found himself somewhat admiring Xun Wujie. He hadn’t thought there could be such free-spirited characters within the Demon Way.

”That jerk!”

Chu Tiange was so angry he nearly vomited blood. He hadn’t expected Xun Wujie to disrespect him so blatantly, showing no regard for him as a fellow genius and completely ignoring his rank as the Demon Young Master.

”Brother Chu, the situation doesn’t look good. We should retreat quickly; otherwise, once the Heartless Young Master has gone far, we won’t be able to escape!”

At this time, a young man from the Demon Way hurriedly urged.

He was extremely worried; should Ling Chen and Xu Ruoyan charge at them now, they’d surely die.

”Help me out of here!”

Chu Tiange was no fool. He knew if they didn’t leave now, they wouldn’t be able to later. Xun Wujie would definitely not turn back to save them, and with their current numbers and condition, they were no match for Ling Chen and Xu Ruoyan.

Watching the fleeing Chu Tiange and his group, Ling Chen and Xu Ruoyan did not give chase. After all, being able to force Xun Wujie to retreat was a significant relief for both of them. They certainly didn’t want to court more trouble or create further complications.

”Thank God for the Yin-Yang Sword Song; otherwise, we would have been in real danger.”

Watching the retreating figures, Ling Chen also breathed a thorough sigh of relief. The Yin-Yang Sword Song had indeed allowed them to exert their full potential. Coupled with his and Xu Ruoyan’s perfect synergy and understanding, they had been able to contend with Xun Wujie.

”It seems that the experts of the Demon Way have entered the Palace. But luckily, we did not encounter any Top Sky Apex Strong Demonic Cult Leaders, which is fortunate in misfortune.”

Xu Ruoyan, who had been tense all the while, finally relaxed and put her Cloud and Water Sword back into its sword scabbard.

”Indeed, that’s the case. However, if the Top Sky Apex Strong had entered the Palace, they wouldn’t have been left behind.”

Ling Chen pondered for a moment, and then a glint of understanding flashed in his eyes. ”I suspect that all experts from the Sky Apex Realm and higher have been blocked outside the Palace and have not actually entered.”

”What?”

Xu Ruoyan’s face changed slightly, shocked at Ling Chen’s conclusion. But soon after, she was puzzled. ”With the strength of the Top Sky Apex Strong, what kind of immense power is needed to stop them at the door? Besides, since we are in here with our strength, how can the Top Sky Apex Strong be stopped so easily?”

”Did you forget about that Purple Light Flood Dragon?”

Ling Chen shook his head, his reply immediate: ”That Purple Light Flood Dragon previously ignored us, probably because our strength had not reached the Sky Apex Realm, and we were not within the forbidden range. That’s why it let us in.”

”So, it was sensing our aura at that time.”

Upon hearing Ling Chen’s words, Xu Ruoyan also recalled the moment at the Bronze Gate when the Purple Light Flood Dragon sniffed them. They had felt it was strange at that moment, but now it seemed there might be some truth to it.

”However, I guess that even if it’s the Purple Light Flood Dragon, it can’t keep all the Top Sky Apex Strong outside the Palace forever. It can only block them for a while.”

As Ling Chen stroked his chin, he knew the Purple Light Flood Dragon was powerful, but there were too many Top Sky Apex Strong in the Five Kingdoms’ Martial World. The Dragon couldn’t hold back so many people. Moreover, if his guess were correct, the Top Sky Apex Strong of both the Righteous Path and the Demon Way would surely join forces to deal with the Purple Light Flood Dragon in order to enter the Human Emperor’s Underground Palace.

”However, even so, we have gained a considerable amount of time. Before the Top Sky Apex Strong break into the Palace, we should try to reach the depths of the Palace first.”

Ling Chen knew that what was hidden within the Human Emperor’s Underground Palace was the Emperor’s Treasure. As of now, both he and Xu Ruoyan were still on the periphery of the Palace. The real treasures should be within the deepest part of the Palace. Treasures of that level are bound to be unique gems that would drive even the Top Sky Apex Strong to frenzy. Originally, Ling Chen did not hold much hope for the Emperor’s Treasure, but now, with no Top Sky Apex Strong vying for it, it might not be impossible to compete for it.

”Let’s hurry; we must speed up!”

Xu Ruoyan nodded. Once the Top Sky Apex Strong enter, the Human Emperor’s Underground Palace would likely turn into their battleground completely. Those below the Sky Apex Realm could only become spectators.

It was likely Xun Wujie had also considered this, which was why he had unexpectedly chosen to retreat instead of continuing to fight them.

”Go!”

Without much hesitation, Ling Chen stepped forward, and together with Xu Ruoyan, he strode out of the hall.

...

「Outside the Palace.」

One hour had passed.

The Purple Light Flood Dragon was still nestled at the entrance of the Palace, eyes closed as if it was napping.

Not far from the Palace’s entrance, almost all the leaders of both the Righteous and Demon Paths who had come to Longyuan Mountain were gathered.

There were more than a dozen people combined from both sides.

However, even though there were many of them, they dared not act rashly. This was because they had been completely defeated by the Purple Light Flood Dragon before due to their lack of preparation. Hence, without full confidence, they would not strike easily again.

Xu Feihong, Lu Youzhen, and other leaders of the Righteous Path were all seated on the ground, their eyes closed, as if they were contemplating something.

The atmosphere was very quiet, but it only lasted for An incense stick burning time before it was broken.

All the Righteous Path leaders gradually opened their eyes and stood up.

It seemed that their deep contemplation had finally ended.

”How is it? Have you all grasped the Fusion Sky Devil Array?”

Sikong Yi saw Xu Feihong and Lu Youzhen stop contemplating, and his eyes brightened. He flew up to them and asked with a smile.

”Nearly there.”

Xu Feihong and the others nodded. ”Although we’re not skilled, we expect to be able to exert fifty percent of its power.”

”Fifty percent is enough.”

The smile on Sikong Yi’s face widened, and a gleam appeared in his eyes. ”Let’s get started!”

”Our Righteous Path and Demon Way will each take one side, arrange ourselves according to the Array Formation’s positions, and strike together!”

As soon as his words fell, Sikong Yi, Demon Elder, Liu Xiling, and other Demonic Cult Leaders erupted their True Qi and took action. They stood in an arc formation, their True Qi connecting, creating a resonance that looked like a giant Hook Scythe in the Void, slashing towards the Purple Light Flood Dragon.

”Strike!”

The Righteous Path side did not lag too far behind. Just as Sikong Yi and his group made their move, Xu Feihong and his group followed suit. Their position formed a purple Sickle that resonated with the black Hook Scythe. As the two combined into one, the Purple Light Flood Dragon was completely trapped!

Such a significant movement woke the Purple Light Flood Dragon up instantly. Seeing this formation, a crimson light flashed in the dragon’s eyes. A strong purple light shone from its body as its Dragon Scales seemed to move rapidly, and its aura surged relentlessly.
